A Boy Scout rally was held in 1909 in the United Kingdom. Several girls attended proclaiming themselves to be Scouts. Robert Baden-Powell chose the name "Girl Guides" and decided that an organization for girls should be run by women so he asked his elder sister, Agnes, to help and, in 1910, the Girl Guide movement was formally founded.

Juliette Gordon Lowe started Girl Scouts in America in 1912, when she organized the first troop in Savannah, Georgia. Girl Scouts of the USA received their Congressional Charter in 1950.
